Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani

Well, actually, I've been going through some of them this morning, and I saw a lot of contradicting messages.

Well, thank you.

Thank you, Tucker.

First of all, look, the starting of the relationship with Hamas and the communication was started

back more than 10 years, 13 years ago at the request of the United States.

Even beyond that, like it was 19 years ago when they first participated in the election and then when they moved their office back in 2012 here, it was used only for the communication and to facilitate like ceasefire, facilitating AIDS to Gaza.

Unfortunately, Qatar has been attacked for having them here, but when you look at what's happening within the region, this region, when you look at its conflict, the parties of the conflict, sometimes they are state actors, sometimes they are non-state actors.

Mossad, Shinbet, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the defense, all of them, they were involved in these aids and the delivery of those aids.

So today, when they are claiming that this is the financing of Qatar to Hamas, it has no basis.

It's just a way to spread this information about a country

that doesn't do anything for them, but it's doing things that are against their policies.

If you just go to Qatar records in its engagement with the United States for the last 20 years or 30 years, Qatar has never
